What a hectic week! Between Xmas, the puppies and catching up with work, it´s been hard to even think about writing an entry, typing the recipe and translating it.But it´s about time I do it, otherwise, I´m gonna forget important details about the process and you´ll all end up with a crappy “pan dulce” lolFor [...]
There are things that are just right… some come easy, some take a loooot of effort and patience. Puppie delivery 101 at the our household was of the latter variety.
In the last 3 days, I have slept a total of 12 hours and worried for about mmm 72 hahaha
As we had thought, we spent Christmas [...]
I finally got around to making the panettone today. I´ll post all of the details probably tomorrow during the day, but I wanted to leave you with pictures of the magic process it entailed.Lovely stuff, if I had known it was pretty easy to make it, I would have given it a try way sooner!!!
At long last, I´ve surrendered to the Xmas frenzy hahaha and all I have to say is, oh my, I´m soooooo tired.Trying to plan ahead, I decided to make orangettes for the panettone I´ll be making on Saturday, which hopefully will turn out as scrumptious as I dream it will.They looked simple enough… don´t most [...]
Christmas is rapidly approaching and, as most people, I was caught pretty off-guard… though, as usual, I won´t be held responsible, it´s definitely the universe conspiring against me, not me for lack of planning, oh no, no, sir.My mind is pretty caught up with work (since lately I am either working too much or not [...]
Well, in a calmer mood, I´m willing to fulfill my promise and tell you all about this apple cake I mentioned before.As you all know, apples and cinammon are one of those matches made in heaven, they simply bring out the best in one another.There´s something utterly comforting in a good slice of apple pie, [...]
Sorry, but I´m having a craptacular day, so I can´t sit down to write about food today. I have two recipes to discuss (apple cake and falafel), but they´ll have to wait a few days. No one seems to be reading this stuff anyway.
The thing is I woke up early today after sleeping for just [...]
In case you haven´t heard about it, there´s a second part to Mark Bittman´s no-knead bread article with different options to tweak the recipe a little bit, different flavors that can be added and when, and responses to questions he received.
Some of the things that I found most interesting are the possibility to add different [...]
I know food trends can get pretty annoying. And one would think the whole quinoa craze would be no different. But I can personally attest that it tastes great and it has like every protein ever discovered or something like that.Being on the healthy food wagon, I´ve tried different things with quinoa, and so far, [...]
Even though I find many recipes interesting, it is hard for me to be surprised at a recipe, either the technique or the combination of flavors. The recipe I´m about to comment surprised me with both. First of all, it´s a syrup made with carrot juice and no extra sugar. And then it has smoked [...]
